Air compressor/air dryer problems
in Air Systems and Brakes
Posted
I have a questions for everyone. How hot is the air compressor on an 01 CH 613 supposed to get? After running ours for a while, we are not able to build air past 70 to 100 and the air compressor is smoking hot. If you pour any water on it, it will boil it. Is that normal? Also any ideas as to why it won't build pressure. Put a new regulator on it, adjusted it with the screw both ways this does nothing. Got air to air dryer if you take both lines off the air is coming through the air dryer, could it be the air dryer that is not letting it build up? I don't want to spend a small fortune on a compressor if I can get away with just an air dryer. Any help would be appreciated.
